Time-critical logistics specialist GBA Services has expanded its existing involvement in aerospace MRO and AOG work with the opening of a dedicated aerospace division.

According to GBA, one of the early projects of the new division is the creation of a dedicated components milk-run service, supporting line maintenance activity by delivering airside to all UK airports for airlines and their associated supplier bases.

The services will complement GBA’s comprehensive pan-European road operations, providing seamless end-to-end solutions to airlines and the aftermarket requirements of MROs and OEMs throughout Europe.

“GBA’s new aerospace division draws together and formalises existing staff, experience, skill and resource,” said Bill Smetham, commercial director of GBA Services. “In addition, we will be recruiting key individuals with specific experience in this sector, who will help drive and further our ambitions to be a market leader in aerospace logistics.”

GBA Services was established in 1987 and operates 13 offices across Austria, Germany, Poland, Portugal and the UK, providing time-critical, temperature-controlled and high-security logistics for clients in sectors such as aerospace, automotive, consumer electronics, industrial manufacturing and pharmaceuticals.
